Probably a dumb question, but I know nothing about sli. If I have to un-sli to fold, will I have to take off the bridge each time too?

No, you can leave the bridge on, but you must disable Sli in NV control panel.

I was able to run SLI w/ folding. you just need to add the -force tag.

Depending on which card/s you're using, you can leave them on SLI and not have to put the -forceg80 flag. I can do this with my 2 8800GTS 512

I plan on upgrading this next as I just purchased a Silverstone Strider 500W off of Formula350. So now I know the next card I get will have enough juice to run it lol.

I was going to say i have a cooler from one of these cards for $5+shipping(need to pay off bog. for a rad only reason for charging)
That is if a cooler from a 8600GT will fit on a GTS

I may get it. Ill def. PM ya when I have the extra cash. I want a GTS 250. I saw reviews on them and seem alright for a cheaper upgrade as my budget is quite low b/c my job is starting to kick in fully now. Im getting more hours, at least 40-45 now. Just enough folding power and the games I play arent TOO graphically intense lol

I'll be using the slipatch with 2 gtx260s. I can reboot to non-sli and sli simply isn't available. So if I don't have to remove the bridge, that will be kewl! My computer is doing weird things now, can't wait for my new psu to fix everything...

Its only 68F today and these 548s has got my top 275 @ 84C. I think I want to get a P55 FTW with different PCIe arrangements cause the lower card only gets up to 75C with the same WU. The way the card is heating up now means it wont have a chance when it gets to 100F+ out here

Any idea what sort of PPD I would be able to get on a GTX 260 c192 OCed as far as I can on the stock cooler without it being too loud? I might (I'm not going to say definitely) have the opportunity to trade my 8800GTS G80 for a GTX260. My grandfather ordered one in his new Dell without knowing what it was, and has now offered it to me in exchange for a less power-hungry card.

A GTX260 192 overclocked and fans @ 70%(70-80c) should produce 8K+ ppd on a 353pt WU.

That's awesome, I currently get ~4200PPD on 353pt WUs on the 8800GTS, and I got ~5600-5700 on the 8800GT (GT and GTS OC'ed)

If you use EVGA's GPU voltage tuner, you can OC this card and get as close to a 216SP version's output (and more) without breaking a sweat

65nm 260's are really good when it comes to OCing it's clocks (and very responsive).

If the CPU/GPU crashes early in the work unit, it returns the percentage already done. Continual crashes will net low ppd. I suggest you check your overclock/stability of the hardware your folding on. Use HFM.net to keep record of your failed work units. Do you know for a fact there is no instability?

No there is no stability issues b/c I am not O/C'ed...... But I ALWAYS have my display driver crashing for some odd reason. I put all clocks to normal to see if it was the cause it still crashes. I updated to the newest Nvidia drivers to no avail....I think my g-card may be dieing....

It's not an EVGA card, if that matters. It's an OEM 1792mb one from a Dell, GPU-Z reports the manufacturer as "Nvidia"

Doesn't matter just like EVGA's precision tool Just thought of something, if you don't have a 192SP registered on EVGA it won't let you DL it. PM me details.
